Elle Fanning Wears a Daisy Crown In Honor of Karl Lagerfled at the Met Gala 2023

Elle Fanning paid tribute to Karl Lagerfeld in a special way with her 2023 Met Gala look on Monday (May 1) in New York City.

The 25-year-old The Great actress stepped out at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in a look reminiscent of a photo shoot they did when she was just 13 years old.

“When I first heard the MET Ball theme was honoring Karl Lagerfeld, I started to reflect on memories we had shared together. The memory that stood out was when he photographed me for his ‘Little Black Jacket’ book. I was 13,” she wrote on Instagram ahead of the event.

“Everyone that was pictured wore the same black Chanel jacket and although we all wore the same, Karl let our individual styles and personalities inform how the jacket should be worn. For my portrait, he decided to place a daisy crown on my head and put the jacket over the white dress I arrived in,” Elle added.

FYI: Elle is wearing a custom Vivienne Westwood look with Cartier jewelry.
